Canada Lily



It's amazing how a plant can disappear from your radar and then years later poof! it's there.
It has been years since I've seen a Canada Lily (Lilium canadense) . Last year I saw a seed head, but no flower. And now here they are,in all of their glory.

Love the color on these blooms! They grow wild?

That's a species I have always wanted to see (but have never seen).

Well Doug, we have a lot of them up here. It's quite a sight to see a field full of them.
